Monty by Jim Meddick for June 07, 2012
Transcript:
Well Doc, we kinda violated the time travelers code, but I feel pretty good about it... Yes... It is quite satisfying to save over 1,500 souls. So I guess the only thing keeping this from being a totally corny happy ending is the fact that we're stuck here... In 1912... Because without the time vortex watch, we... Arr! Arrr! Arrr! Arr! The time vortex device! A passing sea lion caught it when it fell from the promenade deck and slipped it onto its flipper!! Arr! Arr!

Agreed, I think I found the common thread in all their bad luck!

A Totally Corny Happy Ending?! In Monty?! Whatâs so corny about a passing sea lion with a time vortex watch on its flipper showing up on an iceberg where two comic strip characters have just rescued 1500 souls from the Titanic? Whatâs not to believe?

No otariids (sea lions and fur seals) are native to the North Atlantic, as far as I know. But there are five more sea lion species in addition to the California sea lion.

My favorite Ray Bradbury is âDandelion Wineâ.
âŚas for changing the future, donât forget Harlan Ellisonâs Star Trek TOS episode, âCity on the Edge of Foreverâ where Kirk had to let Joan Collins die.

Will that seal be willing to part with that Time Vortex watch? Stay tuned all Monty fans!

A lesser comic would have resolved this with a deus ex machina.

âSomething Wicked This Way Comesâ just the right amount of creepy scary.

There are otariids (sea lions and fur seals) that live at the same latitude as where the Titanic went down, but none of them naturally live near the longitude where the Titanic went down. As you said, north of the Equator they all live in the Pacific Ocean.

The sea lion quickly repaired the broken watch strap before slipping it onto his flipperâŚ
